Still in Manhattan, still on Pearl Street. After dining at Nick’s Kozy Korner Spaghetti House, you might want to cross the street and enjoy the shadows under the El.
But wait: is that a person in the doorway?

Luden's wild cherry cough drops?
Tic-tac-toe too
I see “Spaghetti House” in the distance, but I’m missing these. Can you say where?
"Ludens" looks like its below the first "to let" sign, torn handbill. Upper right panel to left of "Ludens" has a chalk drawn game
Great finds! Thanks for spotting and pointing to them.

That’s great! I saw the Limehouse sign in another tax photo, but it just wasn’t legible enough there. Thanks!
Nice find. That site is scarily obsessive. I saw the move in a New York Times article, 1945.
